Police say a woman was using the toilet when she noticed a man peering at her through a gap above the cubicle.
The 21-year-old suspect was arrested following a police report lodged by the 37-year-old woman at 12.01am today.
Dang Wangi police chief Ahmad Azwan Amin Nordin said the woman was using the toilet when she noticed a man peering at her through a gap above the cubicle.
“She was startled and screamed before seeking help from her husband,” he said in a statement.
Azwan also referred to a 24-second video of the incident that went viral on Threads, showing several people expressing their anger over the man’s alleged actions.
The suspect has been remanded until Nov 11 to assist in investigations.
He is being investigated for allegedly insulting the victim’s modesty under Section 509 of the Penal Code, which carries a maximum five-year jail term, a fine or both.
The case is also being probed for insulting behaviour under Section 14 of the Minor Offences Act 1955, which provides for a fine of up to RM100. - FMT
